Waiting on Jehovah

In this interesting psalm the great point pressed on the
remnant, a lesson for every soul, is waiting on Jehovah, and not
having the spirit disturbed by evil; they will soon be cut down
like grass. They are not to fret themselves, but trust in Jehovah
and do good; to delight in Him they will have their desires; to
commit their way to Him He will justify them; to rest in Him and
wait patiently for Him Jehovah will soon interfere, the wicked
doers be cut off, and the meek inherit the land. The other
character of the remnant is also largely unfolded the righteous man
from verse 12 onward. Jehovah does not forsake His saints: they are
preserved. The righteous shall inherit the land. The final word is,
Wait on Jehovah and keep His way. The righteous suffer, but are not
forsaken; the ungodly are in great prosperity, and soon their place
knows them no more. How this, as to the righteous, points to the
deep character of the suffering One who was forsaken, though the
perfection of righteousness! This psalm also helps to show the
connection between the disciples and this remnant (see Matt. 5: 5)
yet, to show the difference; the Son was there. They could suffer
for His name: this brought in heaven (Matt. 5: 12). He could reveal
the Father, which He does, in that discourse. The light goes out to
the world, as well as being the salt of the earth. Details of grace
also are brought in, of which the latter-day remnant know nothing,
because of this revelation of the Father, who acts in grace. Still,
de facto, it is the same remnant.
